It accumulates, let me tell you. We had the same garden guidelines in Nova Scotia, but it's called Victoria Day and falls on May 18th this year. All the best to you.

One of my daughter's is quarantined separately (since she's a college student with her own apartment) and not getting to hug her regularly hurts.

Last night the FROST! I did cover them, but my Miss KIM lilacs don't look to good today. I hope they snap back, they were planted a few weeks ago, so I am hoping.
